Hi,

If I play advance warning to move home my attacking Matsu Tayuko, do I lower the province's strength by 3 or by 1?

Advance Warning: Battle: Move your target Personality home. If he is a Scout, straighten his unit. Raise or lower the current province's strength by his Force.

Matsu Tayuko Tayuko has +2F while attacking. 1F/3C

Thanks and regards

You lower the province's strength by 1.

Tayuko is only "attacking" while she is in an attacking army, but Advance Warning only checks her force after she's moved home.
